Sinaisky Conducts The Planets

The Planets. It might sound like the name of Daft Punk's next album, but it's actually a seven-movement orchestral suite where each movement is named after a planet in the solar system and composed to sound like that planet's influence on the psyche. Go hear the Gustav Holst-composed piece, written from 1914 to 1916 and inspired by Holst's love of horoscopes, as conducted by Vassily Sinaisky and performed by the LA Philharmonic. Afterward, telescopes will be provided so that you can go outside and gaze at the planets for yourself. Whether you're a music lover or a astrology fanatic, it would be foolish to miss.
